Team Acromantula

Here's what the HP Lexicon has to say, but I think we all get the awesome. You've got a thing. It's big, it's scary, it is quite possibly a big bang, and you need a team that is in it for the long haul? Team Acromantula, baby.


‘Sup Spiders.

Here’s your official team post. Make of it what you will. Intros, discussion, word wars, questions, whatever. This is your team’s Common Room for the month; the only thing we’ll be looking at is the check-in comments, so make sure you’re posting yours as a reply to this.

The only real team assignment you'll be getting is to pick a team name and/or mascot. Like the one you have? Awesome. Want something else? Also awesome. Just let us know what you've all come up with by April 1 so we can get it right on the kick-off post.

There’s been a slight revision on the points for revising, go figure, so please claim them as per the crib sheet below.


3 points
half-hour of line art
half-hour of colouring
half-hour of editing podfic
2 points
write 250 new words
1 point
revise your own words
for half an hour
record podfic
for half an hour
preliminary sketching
for half an hour
beta 250 words
for someone else
cheerlead/help
for an hour
plot/brainstorm/research
for an hour
spend an hour doing something not covered above
that is directly related to achieving your goal


The rest of the rules/guidelines are here. If you have any questions, just ask.

Good luck!
